Out there, somewhere
Did you consider contacting the artist since she said her husband built it?

My main question would be where the hell did he get an eight string LoPro...

Maybe he cut 2 in half and slapped it together. That's basically what they did with the Edge FX for the 8 string Meshuggah had built I believe.

Looks like it, if you look at the fine tuners you can see the cut there.

I'm not the only one here who browses deviantArt.

Not at all, my friend! So useful for me when I have to get some ideas for a job!

Yeah, I'd try to contact the guy indeed. Anyway it was my priority too to know where the artist had that bridge. It seems that anyone who wants a floating 8 string bridge must have a good blacksmith on his address book!

Asked the wife.

She told me that he bought 2 LoPros and he made some "cut and paste" as JJ suggested. Now that I know that it can be done, I think I'm gonna run to a shop to buy a laser and some glue :)
